Chapter 90: Alexander the Great

"Why... Why are we being told the bitter secret of healing magic this early? Wouldn't it be better if we didn't know the same as the general public?" Evelyn couldn't help asking. Sometimes, she will prefer to be ignorant than omniscient.

"I, we, the Holy Church, this Holy Cathedral trains and guides all its members to think wisely with full responsibility for the strength they possess. I, Alexander Celestine, as the possessor of life magic with the highest level and understanding in the Human Continent. Look at me, do you see me living unhappily?"

Evelyn could only shake her head when the Pope looked at her with a kind smile.

"That's right. I live happily, and every day I live among people without anyone knowing me."

"Thank you, grandfather. I will try to think wisely from now on and in the future. I understand responsibility, the cause and effect of life magic, healing magic."

Evelyn tried to clear her head by trying to think positively and see the good over the bad. Everyone will definitely die, people who are sick would prefer to be healthy with healing magic even though there is a price they need to pay, namely the lifespan of that person's own life energy.

A healer would be very unfortunate if they used their own life energy to heal someone all the time. It is tantamount to voluntary suicide which is not really needed, the grave sin that is clearly stated in their Bible regarding suicide.

She sighed and returned to her normal self, she was able to properly digest all that she had gained in two hours of practicing using healing magic, hearing explanations and stories like valuable lectures from the Pope in person.

Elysia also quickly digested and processed everything she already understood and what she just knew. Life energy, the risk from healing magic, strong life magic, lifespan, and everything she got today she processed together with Elena.

Only one word they underlined as an important sentence, namely that only the gods know the solution. It wasn't absolute after considering the magic energy she possessed already exceeded the norm by a very large margin, Energy Points with a thirteen digit number.

Based on the title Harold used to call her when she was in Elena's form in the Avrora Forest, she could actually call herself a Goddess with too much magical energy.

That way she can do the impossible becomes possible. Vanessa is thought to have lost so much of her lifespan from the recovery that Elysia made when the winged white tiger was dying.

Elysia and Elena just need to figure out how to return Vanessa's lifespan to normal as when they first met. Somehow Elysia felt so guilty just thinking about that.

Elysia glanced at the white cat wandering around the training ground, right behind Pope and near the rabbit hutch.

[| Lv. 155 | Spirit Beast | Vanessa | Heavenly Winged Tiger | HP: 124,000 / 124,000 | EP: 63,000 / 63,000 |]

The pupils in Elysia's eyes widened slightly when she saw Vanessa's status, she has never seen her status screen again after the events at Avrora Forest and this really shocked her.

Vanessa's level is still the same but her Health Point and Energy Point have been halved. For example, if Vanessa can live for five hundred years then she can only live for 250 years. With a note, Vanessa has not been restored to normal or has not leveled up.

'Lil Ely, try asking about life energy. If we know what it is, we can restore Vanessa to normal, her whom we met before the tragedy of the explosion.'

Elena immediately gave advice. She knew very well what Elysia had planned and a long discussion some time ago had reached a decision.

"Grandpa, may I ask one more thing?"

"Sure, continue with your question." Alexander nodded once.

"How do we know about life energy? Is it like magic energy?"

Elysia's question also caught the attention of two girls who seemed to be curious as well. At this time, the three girls immediately looked towards Alexander curiously.

"Err... Well, I also don't know the exact answer because I haven't attained divinity. Maybe it's like the soul that living things use to live. It might also be like magic energy but to support life which is always eroded as long as we live until we die someday in the future."

Alexander replied carefully after thinking for a moment. He also doesn't know the exact answer and only explains it based on his experience and understanding that has lived for more than a thousand years.

The girls nodded innocently looking a little clueless and didn't really understand, but one black-haired girl over there knew what she needed to do later.

"Grandpa, I have read everything about you according to your order. I have also read your book under the title Alexander the Great from volume 1 to volume 5! Is that true, the book according to your life story?"

Elysia clapped her hands silently after she knew what she needed to do and felt calm. She with a cheerful expression tried to divert to related topics.

"Hohoho... You are indeed my good granddaughter. Yes! Now you will become my granddaughter! I convert you, Elysia Avery to be my granddaughter! Yes, that's right! The book with five volumes is a story of my youth. Hmm... You know it's me even though I wrote my book under the name Great Landlord as the author. Incredible."

Alexander happily patted Elysia's shoulder lightly. The book by the title Alexander the Great is a metaphorical exaggeration which he wrote based on his youth. The story of a young man who is getting to know all corners of the world with a noble purpose, a hero to save the world.

A fairy tale book that nobody knows that it is the real Pope in the story, with a little spice. In contrast to the historical story about him which is widely written and disseminated based on reality, this five-volume book entitled Alexander the Great is the epitome of his young imagination.

Right now, there was a very talented girl who seemed to claim to have read it with enthusiasm, wasn't she a fan of his book?

"..."

Elysia is getting an exaggerated response that she didn't expect. She hoped to gain something from something that wasn't written in history books and books written by him, but this was what she got.

She spent another two hours just talking about the storybooks written by Pope Alexander when he was young.

Evelyn and Ella who don't know anything about a book called Alexander the Great can only listen and watch as a spectator of a grandfather who is cheerfully talking about the story of his youth to a young girl.

After those two grueling hours, Elysia had a better idea of ??how the Pope's personality was when he was younger. One word to describe it, wayward.

"So, Grandpa. You were dragged back to the Holy Cathedral when you were ascended to a Saint by your father to get married? Then you did what you experienced with your son? Fufufu... Very similar in terms of love stories." Elysia giggled with amusement when she combined true stories with fabricated fairy tales.

"What doth thee knoweth, oh dram mistress. The story of my youth is filled with action and adventure, I was dragged back from my adventure story because of the difficult task and big responsibility."

Alexander didn't like it when he was equated like that, the accent in his story came out accidentally.

"While my son is heartbroken because his idol died young and vowed to travel to various parts of the world as single, of course, I have to teach him some manners and general knowledge after letting him be single for decades without being able to move on."

He stroked his beard wisely like a responsible father and head of a family. He completely disagrees and doesn't want to admit that what he did is similar wherever the listener tries to understand it, even though he and his son were both dragged back to get married.
